Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for operating an operating table, which has a plurality of adjustable by means of controls components.
  • a control unit for controlling the drives of a detachable from an operating table column patient support surface with electromotive adjustable components, consisting of a power supply, a controller and a control unit known.
  • the HMI device is integrated into a transport cart for transporting the operating table storage area.
  • a method and apparatus for bidirectional infrared data transmission between an operating table and an operator device are known.
  • the operating table and the operating device are each participants in an infrared data transmission and each comprise an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver.
  • a device for adjusting an operating table which has an operating table column on which an adjustable patient support surface is detachably arranged.
  • the device comprises an operating device for inputting adjustment commands for adjusting components of the operating table.
  • the adjustment commands can be transmitted directly from the HMI device to the adjustable storage area.
  • a device for adjusting the patient support surface of an operating table which comprises a plurality of relatively adjustable segments. At least a portion of the adjustable segments is connected to actuators that are controllable for adjusting the associated segments.
  • the input device has means for inputting body part-related adjustment commands associated with the adjustment of the position of a body part or body portion of a patient lying on the patient support surface.
  • a first action of at least one first drive unit for adjusting at least one first component is carried out by actuating at least one first operating element. Furthermore, by actuating a second operating element, the first action performed by the actuation of the first operating element is automatically completely reversed. Thereby, a set before the action performed position of the adjustable components of the operating table can be restored by merely operating the second control element in a simple manner, without the position of the components must be set by the operating doctor or an assistant complicated again. This ensures a simple and safe operation of the operating table. By automatically undoing the movement of the components performed during the first action, movements of these components that are unfavorable to a patient on the storage surface are also avoided.
  • the first action is automatically completely reversed by a second action, in which the first drive unit and / or the first component automatically completely performs a reverse movement sequence, as when executing the first action.
  • the reverse sequence of movements ensures that the movement of the components and the resulting movement of the patient corresponds to an exact reverse movement of the patient in the first action, so that no risk to the patient's movement is to be expected.
  • the first and third actions can be carried out in succession, the third action being carried out after the first action.
  • the second operating element is actuated once, the third action is automatically completely reversed, preferably by a fourth action.
  • the first action is automatically completely reversed, preferably by the second action.
  • a plurality of consecutively executed actions can be automatically reversed step by step by activating the second operating element several times, whereby the movement of the patient caused by the first and third action takes place in the opposite direction, so that it can be assumed that no movement of the patient that is unsuitable for the patient Components of the operating table are executed.
  • the third operating element can be actuated during the execution of the first action, whereby at least part of the third action is carried out during, ie, at the same time as, the first action.
  • the first and third action are performed in reverse order of movement, so that the first and the third action at least partially simultaneously, preferably by a second and a fourth action, reversed.
  • an already previously set position can be automatically restored to a gentle manner to the patient, after it has been changed by several operating actions.
  • the previously automatically completely reversed action is repeatedly executed by actuating a fourth operating element or if the actions that were previously automatically completely reversed are repeatedly carried out completely by actuating the fourth operating element.
  • an action after an action has been undone, it can be automatically re-executed, so that it is in particular very easy to switch between two different positions. Furthermore, it is achieved that in case of an accidental undo of an action, this can easily be executed again.
  • the automatic full undo of an action is also known as UNDO, and the repeated execution of an undone action is called REDO.
  • the drive unit controlled to execute the action is automatically controlled in such a way that a completely reversed movement sequence of the movement of the component executed during the action is generated.
  • the time course of the change and / or the time course of the rate of change of the angular position of an output shaft of the drive unit or the drive shafts of multiple drive units the time course of the change and / or the rate of change of the angular position of the driven Component or the driven components are detected and stored as information, wherein the automatic complete cancellation of an action then the drive unit or the drive units is driven based on the stored information such that it automatically a complete reverse sequence of movements than the action to be reversed even executes. It is thereby achieved that the same movement is actually carried out in reverse sequence of movements by the acquired information, so that an undesired movement of the patient is avoided.
  • the sequence of steps and / or the timing of the sequence of steps of a stepper motor serving as a drive unit can be detected and stored as information.
  • the stepping motor is driven based on the stored information in chronological reverse sequence and / or with opposite direction of rotation.
  • a reverse movement of a component which has previously been carried out in the action to be undone, can be achieved in a simple manner.
  • an adjustment action, the adjustment path, the time profile of the adjustment path, the adjustment speed and / or the time profile of the adjustment speed of a linear drive serving as drive unit can be detected and stored as information.
  • the linear actuator is stored from the stored Information is controlled such that the at least one component performs a reverse order of movement than in the automatically completely undone action.
  • the time duration of the activation of the drive unit and / or the speed stage activated for the drive unit can be detected and stored as information. Using this information, a drive unit can be controlled in a simple manner so that a reverse movement sequence can be easily effected.
  • the at least one drive unit and / or the plurality of drive units are controlled by a control unit as a function of the operator inputs made by actuating the operating elements.
  • a simple control of the drive units is possible, so that a reverse movement sequence can be carried out easily if an action brought about by operating elements is activated by actuating a further operating element to undo the action.
  • control unit stores parameters of the executed action and / or of the actions performed. This allows the control unit to easily ensure that in fact a reverse movement sequence is automatically ensured to automatically completely undo an action already taken, thereby avoiding a hazard to the patient.
  • the operating elements are provided by means of a remote control, preferably a wireless remote control.
  • the remote control may alternatively or additionally store parameters of the action being performed and / or the actions taken to use it
  • a second aspect of the invention relates to a device for operating an operating table with the features of claim 14.
  • a sequence of movements of the components of the operating table and thus the change in position of a patient in a simple manner can be reversed and reversed, so that one before the Performing the action to be undone existing position of the components of the operating table in a simple manner can be restored.
  • the device has corresponding information for automatically completely reversing the action to an operating table control unit transfers. Thereby, the function of automatically completely canceling an action can be easily realized.
  • the device according to the second aspect of the invention can be further developed with the advantageous developments given above for the method, wherein the specified features are achieved in particular when the device is connected to an operating table.
  • FIG. 1a shows an assembly 10 with a remote control 12 having a plurality of controls 14 to 28, with the aid of adjustable components 32 to 46 of an operating table 30 adjusted, ie changed in their position in space and / or compared to other components 32 to 46, can be.
  • the individual components 32 to 46 or groups of these components 32 to 46 are assigned to the operating elements 14 to 24 of the remote control 12 so that upon actuation of a control element 14 to 24, a corresponding adjustment action of the component or component group assigned to this operating element 14 to 24 is carried out.
  • the patient support surface 31 of the operating table 30 of the in FIG. 1a shown starting position in the in FIG. 1b shown first adjustment position has been adjusted.
  • the components 32 to 48 have been rotated about the axes of rotation 48, 50, 52 and 54 by means of drive units integrated in the patient support surface 31 until the components 32 to 46 of the patient support surface 31 of the operating table 30 correspond to those in FIG FIG. 1b have taken shown first adjustment position.
  • several operating inputs via the controls 14 to 24 of the remote control 12 is carried out.
  • a plurality of executed in a period of control actions are combined to an adjustment, which are then reversed automatically in reverse sequence of movements when pressing the UNDO button 26.
  • an information about the action caused by the operator input action for adjusting the respective component 32 to 48 can be stored for each operator input, in which case when pressing the UNDO key 26 only the last executed action can be reversed and the previously executed actions are only undone when repeatedly pressing the UNDO key 26.
